    There was a spin-off educational cartoon called "Harold and His Amazing Green Plants" animated by Kurtz and Friends. It starred the Broccoli, Eggplant, and Tomato and a little boy named Harold--it ran on the Disney Channel quite a bit. There was a similar spin off series for Wonders of Life, too.

    Miss the fact I never got to see Kitchen Kabaret in person for myself. Closest thing EPCOT had to Country Bear Jamboree. Would have loved it I think :(
    Thanks for preserving this by making a video on it! Happy late Thanksgiving! Take care! :D

      Happy late Thanksgiving to you too! I never got to see it either, but Kitchen Kabaret seemed so warm and pleasant to experience. It fits right in with the laidback feel of EPCOT!

      @@StorybookAmusement As much as I like Soarin', a food show, fits The Land better, to go along with Living with the Land.

    The last time I went to a Disney Park was back in 2002 when I was 13. My family saw Food Rocks. Even at the time, I thought the show animatronics looked cheap. Especially compared to animatronics of Kitchen Kabaret, judging from what I've seen in this video.

    I live too far away from Disney, and I'm a 2000s person, but Kitchen Kabaret looked so awesome! Food Rocks on the other hand, while I adore the concept, the execution is not so good [not helping matters is the Nestle sponsorship]. But honestly, I love anthromorphic food characters, there's something super charming about them. You can thank Will Vinton, amongst other, for my love of anthromorphic food. As much as I hate Mars as a company, I still adore the M&Ms characters, and I also really love The California Raisins. The Raisins kind of edge out the M&Ms as my favorite anthro food mascot due to being Claymation. There's something charming about Claymation that I think cannot be recaptured by any other animation style. Speaking of Will Vinton, he was going to make his own theme park called Claymation Station, but his financial issues prevented the park from opening. It's a huge shame, because I adore the concept of Claymation Station so much. Hey Storybook Amusement, have you seen the documentary Claydream? It's a really bittersweet story. I feel really bad for Will Vinton, he wanted to be like Walt Disney, but everything went wrong for him.

    This is one of my favourite rides at DW, was it good when I was 13 and we went? Yeah, it was fine... but my dad sang "Veggie, veggie, fruit, fruit" for the rest of his life!

      The one at the beginning is a cover by me. The show music in the middle of the video is publicly available if you search for the Kitchen Kabaret soundtrack.

      Hi there. May I ask where you got that info? Most sources (e.g., RetroWDW, sheet music, among others) cite Buddy Baker as the composer. Scott Hennesy personally confirmed he wrote the lyrics via The Tomorrow Society Podcast.

    I only saw this once and it was terrible. Just horribly written and sub-Disney design. The kind of thing you expect from a knockoff amusement park. Even my mother hated it. Second-worst attraction to Superstar Limo.

    • @Donyourmom
      @Donyourmom 3 месяца назад +1

      There are plenty of other worse attractions after superstar limo, trust me. Almost everything they make now is “subpar”.
